Segmented Field Electron Conformal Therapy with an Electron Multi-leaf Collimator

Purpose: The purpose of this work was to investigate the potential of a prototype electron multi-leaf collimator (eMLC) to deliver segmented-field electron conformal therapy (ECT) and to improve dose homogeneity to the planning target volume (PTV) by feathering the abutting edge of the higher energy...
